Brilliant logic.
So you wouldn't mind getting virtually smacked (banned) if we find you sounding like a right **** now?

The ban before the last one i got was a 24 hour ban for posting that i hope Robbie Savage breaks both his legs on Stricktly Come Dancing,,,,24 hour ban for "hate Speech"..lol so nothing surprises me with certain mods (and actually i am not talking about you Kirill as you seem to be quite fair)

if someone "jostles" you at work and calls you a **** to your face then turns around and starts to walk away...then he is gonna get a smack in most workplaces....unless your a tank top wearing Guardian reading liberal who instead will have "strong words" instead.

But you've just described Joey there...see how using stereotypes can get you in a pickle?

Oh dear, trust you to not provide the full context for it again

Anyway, this thread has very quickly veered off-topic. So kindly keep to the subject or not at all please.

If someone jostles me, I usually tend to either jostle them back harder or maybe grab them by the shoulder and have a word. Attacking someone in public is a mugs game. You do that with no witnesses unless you fancy some bum sex in prison.

But right now I am not saying that you should be banned for breaking the forum rules. I am just following your logic and asking you if you think it would be natural and fair in your opinion for us to ban you simply because we might think that you sound like a right four-asterisk something?

I don't know where you work, but it certainly isn't in the real world!

[OldSchool]

Maybe you could come to happy medium and poke them with your copy of your Guardian?

doesnt matter where you work does it? what would you do if someone does that to you in the street or in a pub? walk away? If you dont stand up ofr yourself in this world then people will just walk all over you...no good being a "i dont like confrontations" or "i am gonna tell my mummy"....stand up for yourself! be a man! man up!
You come home to find your missus at it with another man ...what you do? cry? call him names? join in? :-)

Actually that might be the wisest option. Not because I am fond of youghurt knitting or whatever, but because if you don't walk away and start actively defending yourself then you might end up the guilty party in the eyes of the law in the PC gone mad world of Britain today. Wasn't there a case like that last year when a man was arrested for defending his girlfriend against some smackers in the middle of the street, caught on CCTV and all?

yer i saw that and it was disgusting. Like you say you have to careful in this PC mad country we now live in......just wait for him to come out the pub in a dark alley then :-)

[DeepcutHoop]

Yup the day we couldn't attack someone from behind in the workplace is the day this country went to the dogs.

They'll be telling me I can't stub my cigar out in people's eyes next

elf 'n' safety gone mad innit geez?

Well you couldn't if you were working with me because I wear glasses. Very inconsiderate of me, I know. Of course you could always complain to HR about that and they will request me to take the glasses off so that you could do the deed ... equal opportunities and affirmative action and all that

only attack them from behind if they are bigger than you and you feel you need the advantage...cmon everyone knows that.
